Counseling Services
Our counseling approach is solution-focused, strength-based, short-term in most cases, affordable and effective. A variety of therapeutic approaches may be used as no two people are alike, so it is that the Treatment Plan for each individual, couple or family must also be unique.
Real World Counseling offers services that relate to the following issues:
- Anxiety
- Depression/Mood Disorders
- Self-harm
- Trauma
- Relationships
- Anger
- Grief
- Substance Abuse
- Personality Disorders
- Chronic/Terminal illness
- Chronic Pain
We work with Adolesents and Adults, individuals, couples and families. Most people initally come to counseling/therapy with some significant level of anxiety and discomfort about engaging in counseling or therapy. No one comes to their first counseling or therapy session saying, "I'm really comfortable meeting this therapist that I do not know and talking about my intimate life experiences, feelings and thoughts." However, by the end of the first session at Real World Counseling most clients report that they "look forward to their next individual or group session" because it is a safe place to talk about issues that others can relate to; they are learning skills that are helpful in solving real life issues; and they are regaining balance and joy in their lives.
